DESTINATION CHOCOLATES SOCKS

What is the relationship between the two? None, the directors of the Perrin hosiery and Dufoux chocolates factory will answer you in unison! Apart from the fact that both firms have the label "Entreprise du patrimoine vivant". Nothing predisposed them to meet for a day of coupled visits. From the beginning of 2020, these two emblematic companies of their region of Saône-et-Loire, the mining area for the Perrin hosiery factory and the Charolais for the Dufoux chocolates, will be holding a very special day for you. Both have decided to open their doors to the public in order to showcase their know-how. Discovery of manufacturing techniques, stories of the houses and their creators, tastings, workshops, etc. A day that can be done in the order that you wish but that you can recommend at the start of the Perrin company, the afternoon being conducive to gourmet delights. After a visit of about 45 minutes and an essential visit through the hosiery's factory shop, visitors go to Charolles, either with their personal vehicle or by bus (to be reserved for at least 10 people). They have the possibility to choose the formula with meal by stopping at the eponymous restaurant, then after a traditional lunch, join the Dufoux chocolate factory. The discovery and tasting of these little chocolate wonders is done throughout a very instructive visit of about 1 hour, in the very heart of the manufacturing unit. A visit to the shop allows everyone to leave with these treasures and gourmet souvenirs. An unusual destination that combines culture and delicacies in a region that supports ancestral know-how and makes these two companies real monuments to be preserved.
